Rinpoche quotes Kyabje Khunu Lama Rinpoche: ""If you want to benefit yourself generate bodhichitta"". We are so habituated with the self-cherishing thought that even if we hear extensive teachings about bodhichitta we don't change our daily lives. Lama Tsongkhapa said - everything depends on one's motivation, so we have to keep bodhichitta in mind at all times. Rinpoche emphasizes: Find the time to practice. Without practicing the mind degenerates and the self cherishing thought arises again.
This video was extracted from a teaching that was recorded in Pomaia, Italy on October 19, 2017.
